Which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE?
a. yeasts are unicellular fungi
b. molds and mushrooms are filamentous fungi. The filaments are chains of cells called "hyphae"
C. most protozoa are unicellular, animal-like members of Domain Archaea, many of which are motile
and lack cell walls
d. algae have historically been described as "plant-like" protists because they contain chloroplasts
and cell walls
e. organisms which make chlorophyll a can perform oxygenic photosynthesis
f. all organisms which make chlorophyll a have chloroplasts
g. Nostoc, algae and plants all make chlorophyll a and all have chloroplasts
h. Nostoc, algae and plants have mitochondria which evolved from primitive endosymbiotic bacteria
i. Photoautotrophs perform photosynthesis and chemoheterotrophs require pre-formed organic
molecules as a source of carbon and energy
j. Cyanobacteria, algae and plants are photoautotrophs. Fungi, protozoa and animals are
chemoheterotrophs
